descriptif du fournisseur
Time is not a neutral framework for events, but the constitutive horizon of awareness and meaning.
Living Time
offers a philosophical investigation of time as it is lived, experienced, and articulated across multiple dimensions-ontological, phenomenological, cultural, and aesthetic. Engaging thinkers such as Augustine, Kant, Bergson, Husserl, and Heidegger, alongside insights from Zen and other non-Western traditions, this work challenges the spatialized and objectified models of time dominant in modern thought. Through close phenomenological analysis, it explores how time structures identity, perception, memory, and expectation, as well as how different historical and cultural configurations-mythic time, instrumental time, digital time-mediate and transform our experience of temporality. Rather than positing a single essence of time, the book discloses its irreducible plurality, instability, and generativity.
Living Time
is essential reading for scholars and students of phenomenology, metaphysics, and the philosophy of time, as well as anyone concerned with the temporal conditions of experience.
